Servant Heart

“Whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave.” Matthew 20:26-27





I tease my helper in our house, ate Lucy, that when we get to heaven, I will stay in her house, because I am sure she will have a mansion or a palace in heaven. She is so selfless and her heart is a servant heart. She always puts others first and hardly thinks of herself at all. I know she cannot do all she does without love in her heart. 


If we want to have a servant heart like Jesus, we need love, compassion and mercy in our heart. Otherwise what we do for others will be empty actions. We need to join our heart and will to the heart and will of God. There are so many people who require help in this needy world of ours. How do we even start? We need a listening heart and observant eyes. God usually brings people or situations to our notice, but we have a tendency to ignore them because we are too busy and caught up in our own needs. This Lent, let us take time to be observant, to see what we can do, where we are, with what we have.
